Barcelona star Lamine Jamal raised great questions after he shared words from a clip that was said to be directed to his close friend Niko Williams, who preferred to stay with his club Athletic Bilbao.
Lamine published through the “stories” feature, with his official account on Instagram, an excerpt from the lyrics of the song Murad, the Spanish rap singer of Moroccan origin, during which he appears to blame Niko for his last decision.
The song’s lyrics came as follows, “I have achieved what I wanted with my effort and I did not ask anything from anyone and I did not even have to humiliate myself. I have helped those around me and I am still on my way. Tell me who can prevent me now.”

The content of the message received the attention of the media in Spain, and it has become a fatty material for dialogue and discussion in the “El Chiringuito” program, one of the most famous TV programs in the country.
Spanish journalist Jose Alvarez emphasized that this message is a clear criticism of Williams’s decision, which renewed his contract with Athletic Bilbao until the summer of 2035.
“I personally explain it as a message addressed to a friend who left him alone,” he said.

He replied, “In my personal opinion, I see that it indicates the moment when Williams presented himself to his teammates in the Spain national team, including Lamine, saying that he wants to move to Barcelona.”
“The lyrics of the song, especially a clip (I have not even had to humiliate psychological), are in line with the idea that Williams went to Lightsel to Barcelona players with his desire to move to the Catalan team.”
Alvarez concluded, “As for the phrase (I have helped around me), it indicated that Lamine apparently played his role during the negotiations, while (I am still on my way) it confirms that he is still in Barcelona at a time when Williams chose the money.”
It is noteworthy that Williams was very close to the transition to Barcelona, who prepared to pay the value of the penalty clause in his contract, according to several reports published by the various Spanish media over the past month.
But Athletic Bilbao announced on Friday – and on the sudden of the extension of the contract of his young player for 10 years, until June 30, 2035, which was a shock to his colleagues, especially Lamine.
